Hi,

I'm having an issue with Elog 3.1.1 on windows 10 not displaying all log entries (after a certain date) in a logbook directory.

The logbook is saved in a Dropbox folder and the entries were created on a windows 8.1 PC with 3.1.1 also.

I created an entry in windows 10, this created a new log file (new day) with a duplicate ID, deleted the log file and then the windows 10 pc displayed all entries.

Is there any way to ensure Elogd picks up all log files ?

Thanks & Regards,

Mike

I believe there is a stunnel port for Windows, but that's more for the experienced users. I guess there is no simple solution.

Thanks Stefan,

I checked in my ELOG folder and can't find the stunnel.cfg. Is that only available in Linux? Can you please recommend a third party SMTP server for me use to successfully enable mail notif via Windows OS. Thanks much

Cheers,

Raymund

Start with the demo example configuration, add one line after the other from your config, and figure out which is the offending statement in your config, then post a minimal configuration here which triggers the problem.

After submitting a new post, if the page is left completely alone,, it will after a few minutes prompt that the page needs to resend information.

This is the same prompt you'd get if you attempt to refresh a page that had session variables passsed to it. Example is attached.

Is there something in my config that could cause this?   This is a fresh install of the latest verison however my elogd.cfg file has been migrated throuh many installs over many versions, so it's very possible this is something following along.

thanks.

Hi All,

I got into trouble setting up the automated email notification.

elog.cfg:

;Send automatic email notifications
SMTP host = mail.ihep.ac.cn
;SMTP host = 127.0.0.1

;Some SMTP server require username/passowrd authentication
;elogd -t <your password> for creating SMTP password
SMTP username = wux@ihep.ac.cn

SMTP Password = .JYEytMGvsHANeCIfQJXmscIt4NOtzJ8GbAnh3XH280
;SMTP Password = V3gxMzYxODAxMjAxNA==
;No Email notification
Suppress Email to users = 1

elogd -v:
